简要总结
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is characterised by non-reversible bronchial obstruction associated with systemic disorders and comorbid factors. Dynamic hyperinflation during an exercise increase dyspnea and can reduce exercise capacity. Stair climbing is associated with prolonged dynamic hyperinflation and severe dyspnea in COPD patients. The aim of this study is to carry out the effect of an energy conservation technique on dyspnea to facilitate stair climbing.

结局指标
主要结局
Difference in Dyspnea at iso time and at time limit between the two sessions
时间窗: The outcome will be measured before, at the end and every one minute during the stair climbing sessions. The two stair climbing sessions will perform the same day, separate from 30 minutes minimum for a total time frame of 1 day.
Difference in dyspnea using Modified Borg Scale (0 - 10 points) 0=no dyspnea ; 10 = maximal effort
次要结局
- difference in time required for the patient to climb the 6 floors(The outcome will be collected at the end of each sessions. The two stair climbing sessions will perform the same day, separate from 30 minutes minimum for a total time frame of 1 day.)
- Difference in respiratory rate(Data will be continuously collected during every sessions. The two stair climbing sessions will perform the same day, separate from 30 minutes minimum for a total time frame of 1 day.)
- Difference in Cardiac Frequency(Data will be continuously collected during every sessions. The two stair climbing sessions will perform the same day, separate from 30 minutes minimum for a total time frame of 1 day.)
- Difference in inspiratory capacity(The outcome will be collected before and at the end of each sessions (within 2 minutes after the end). The two stair climbing sessions will perform the same day, separate from 30 minutes minimum for a total time frame of 1 day.)
- Difference in muscular fatigue(The outcome will be measured before, at the end and every one minute during the stair climbing sessions. The two stair climbing sessions will perform the same day, separate from 30 minutes minimum for a total time frame of 1 day.)
- Difference in Oxygen Saturation(Data will be continuously collected during every sessions. The two stair climbing sessions will perform the same day, separate from 30 minutes minimum for a total time frame of 1 day.)
- Difference in peripheral muscle oxygenation(Data will be continuously collected during every sessions. The two stair climbing sessions will perform the same day, separate from 30 minutes minimum for a total time frame of 1 day.)
- Difference in tidal volume(The outcome will be collected before and at the end of each sessions (within 2 minutes after the end). The two stair climbing sessions will perform the same day, separate from 30 minutes minimum for a total time frame of 1 day.)
